speople Posted July 2, 2010 Share Posted July 2, 2010 Not a moan, but just wondering if "super penalties" exist on patch 10.3 (I play 10.2) Virtually every free kick that I concede in a dangerous (and sometimes not dangerous) position, goes in due to the total lack of the ME being able to put my guys in the correct position. Below is an example of an 8 man wall. Just look at all those holes. The only 2 guys not meant to be in the wall are the guy circled, and the guy with the black line pointing towards him, but as can be seen that guy is actually lined up in the " wall " Taker only has to hit it straight and it goes in the top corner. Unlike other decisions, (offsides/allowed disallowed goals etc which are 50/50 in that both the player and AI get them) have never ever scored one of these myself on 10.2 Is it just the AI giving itself a goal ? Tried to find the original thread, but no luck. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
edgar555 Posted July 2, 2010 Share Posted July 2, 2010 How many times does one man need to be told that the AI doesn't cheat and doesn't give itself goals. Why don't you just have one thread for all your musings and be done with it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ronaldo_rooney Posted July 2, 2010 Share Posted July 2, 2010 Maybe the players are using their initiative, 'cos if everybody except 2 people are suposed to be in the wall, there would be ALOT of unmarked players for the freekick taker to pass to. That would be more dangerous than your flimsy wall. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be more dangerous than your flimsy wall. But the wall is meant to be there for a direct free kick, of which all of these super penalties are. (Huge difference between direct free kick, and indirect kick). My other guys who have left all the holes aren't in fact marking anyone. But anyway, thats not the point, The point was do these super pens exist on 10.3 ? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
speople Posted July 2, 2010 Author Share Posted July 2, 2010 "super penalties"? looks like a free kick to me The term "super penalty" was coined before (not by me) to describe the above situation where huge gaps are left in a wall and the f/k taker only needs to hit the ball straight along the ground in order to score a goal, though due to limitations I wasn't able to show that on the screenshot.

speople Posted July 2, 2010 Author Share Posted July 2, 2010 No. End of story. Thanks for at least replying to the point of the post As for poor instructions, (Maybe the ME can't handle 8 people in a wall. Will try 5-6 instead) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Give it speople. Super Penalties? Whats next? Uber goal kicks that go straight to a forward who easily beats a useless CB pairing and scores? Oh hang on........

Upson nowhere near match fit, as for Terry, words fail me. At such a level, you need v quick defenders, not just someone who can head the ball.

Cougar2010 Posted July 2, 2010 Share Posted July 2, 2010 I can't believe I'm saying this in a speople thread but there was an issue with walls on one of the patches.

Though it does seem that the more I put in the wall, the more I conceded. So now have less. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now you know players can pass from a freekick, it is a good idea to set one player to "Go back" so he isn't marking anyone and can close the ball down if it is passed. Also have atleast 3 players marking the opposition. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ism-scfc Posted July 4, 2010 Share Posted July 4, 2010 Even if this is the case (which is isn't), your arrow points from the taker's feet, right into the top corner of the net? Do you know how difficult that is? Even if your wall deficiencies allow it, it's not going to happen very often is it? Did they score from the FK by the way?

Luckz Posted July 4, 2010 Share Posted July 4, 2010 Well, it was a known bug in some previous FM10 version - but I dunno if 10.0, .1, or .2. And of course, on Steam it updates itself unless you tell it not to. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
